My Party

Yesterday we celebrated my birthday with my family. Woo Hoo! My read birthday is Wednesday, the 10th so we had to celebrate it early. Gotta love birthdays. My mom and dad gave me the rest of my silverware that goes with my fine china, and a silverware chest to keep it all in. I was happy, since I'd never be able to afford it all by myself. I've been getting a little here and there for birthdays and such until I completed my set. My brother and sister in law gave me a gift card to Deseret Book, I'm always a sucker for new books. My sister and her family gave me a bunch of fun things; adorable clear stamps, the blocks to put them on of course, saying stamps, ribbons, and a cute wooden block that says "Boo". I was very excited!! My cute little Ashlie (my sister's daughter), read me what the card said. "E...I...O......from Ashlie". I'm not too thrilled about turning 30, I would much rather be celebrating 20. Maybe I could pretend.

Next Sunday we're going to have a party with Matt's family. The somewhat funny thing is I told Matt he's throwing me a party, because if not, his family would pretend my birthday didn't even exist, like they have for the past 2 years. Strange people. This year I got smart and figured if I wanted some sort of recognition I better plan something myself. That'll be an interesting experience since they're not my favorite people to spend time with. I figure if it's a way to get presents I just might have to deal with it. Hehe.
